"Scuse me. Did you previous post NOT say "Until the TEA Party, or another movement of real conservatism, gains critical mass, we are stuck with working within the GOP"? That's the same thing as saying this is what we got and we do this or nothing.
The GOP-E has become both corrupt and contemptible. In 2010, we worked pretty hard to send Tea Party candidates (under the guise of being "Republicans") to the Congress. Once there, the GOP-E leadership, essentially, told them that if they didn't play ball the way the GOP-E told them, they would not get any of their legislation passed.
I don't know how that sounds to you, but that sounds like Democrat strong-arm tactics to me. And, this was Bawling Boehner telling them this.
That's NOT how conservatives are supposed to act (although it would be a positive turn of events if Bawling Boehner would address Democrats that way!). I welcome the GOP-E getting in the gutter and going mano-a-mano with the Dems like that, but NOT the people we sent to address the wimpy Republican Party.
When we ALL stop donating money to the linguini-spined, limp-wristed do-nothings in the RNC and let it die a REALLY nasty death, maybe . . . . . . . just MAYBE we can get a political party that represents the values of true conservatives instead of Mitt Romney moderates.
